BIG ALMATY LAKE AND AYUSAI GORGE
Discover one of the most spectacular natural attractions near Almaty—a stunning alpine lake surrounded by glaciers, pine-covered slopes, and majestic mountain peaks.
Your journey begins with a scenic drive toward the Prokhodnoye Gorge. Along the way, you'll pass the First President's Park, enjoy beautiful views of the Trans-Ili Alatau Mountains, and take a leisurely walk through Ayusai Gorge to a picturesque waterfall, where you can cool off beside the crystal-clear mountain stream.
The highlight of the tour is Big Almaty Lake, located at an altitude of more than 2,500 meters above sea level. Its brilliant turquoise waters, dramatic glacial landscapes, and breathtaking mountain scenery make it one of the region's most iconic destinations.
On the return journey, you may choose to stop at a cozy café by a mountain river to enjoy a delicious lunch featuring traditional shashlik and khychin. You can also sample locally brewed beer or a refreshing berry fruit drink.
